Louis Morris representative of New York

During the time of instability between Great Britain and the Americas in the aftermath Indian and French War came many taxation due to the expensive endeavor of of war; consequently a extra-legal conference came to be in between delegates of the Americas to oppose such taxation. On July 1, 1776, the Second Continental Congress met in Philadelphia, these states included New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Islands, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North and South Carolina and Georgia. In this meting of independence there was total of Fifty-six delegates signed the United States Declaration of Independence, a statement announcing that the thirteen American colonies were now independent states, and thus no longer a part of the British Empire. These delegates were chosen due to the superb reputation and experience each acquired; one of the many delegates being Louis Morris representative of New York. Morris was elected as one of representative of New York the in Second Continental Congress due to his well standing social status knowledge of politics and his unbiased assessment. 

Louis Morris, born in New York, was born into a high ranking family who were both wealthy and politically involved thus setting up Morris whole future to be invincibility in the direction of politics. Morris came from an influential political family in New York politics who owned the land that is now in the Bronx and the city of Morrisania that was later inherited by Morris with the death of his father and controlled the estate. While his political future was set in stone when he graduated from Yale College in 1746.  He served in the Provincial legislature before the troubles with Great Britain began and joined with the patriots. With his 

high ranking education and family pedigree Morris gained a sturdy place in New York politics and ideal receptive for New York in the Continental Congress. Morris was also an advocate for the poor often siding against his wealthy neighbors and was known for his strict morality, uncommon dignity and graceful demeanor. Thus he's morality was one desired by the New York citizens to represent them in this all important meeting discussing the fate of the Americas in regard to the tyranny of Great Britain. 

Due to Morris outstanding family line, education and fair ruling his place in the Continental Congress and signing of the Declaration of Independence was both well earned and inevitable. As well as his later contribution in  as a brigadier-general in the New York militia that brought conflict between his duties in congress and to the defense of his own colony.  In 1777 he returned to his local duties, served as a judge in Worcester, and served intermittently as a member of the upper house of the new legislature until 1790. As well as rebuilding his estates that was destroyed in the revolution;(which Lewis Morris had three sons that served in the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War) the he later  died in January 1798 at the age of 72.

Did Pocahontas save John Smith? I think not.

Though historical context there is a blur of the actual encounter of John Smith and native Pocahontas. Whether the iconic heroic act of Pocahontas to save John Smith from her enraged father, Chef of the Powhatan tribe, was more then just a myth. At the time English were beginning the act colonizing the Americas quite late in the game compared to the Spanish and  Portuguese, in the 1600's. In which they encountered conflicts amoungst natives through bloody wars in the few colonies such as, the first surviving settlement of the English, Jamestown whose ruler was John Smith due to his ability as a captain and later wrote experiences in the Americas in England that quite differed. This Inconsistency of documentation provides this level of hearsay that discredits the works of John Smith. Thus Pocahontas did not save John smith due to the the inconsistency of written statements and the later documentation of Pocahontas by Paul Lewis discrediting the "saving" story which was just that a story.

The events that transpire in the aftermath of John Smith captivity of the natives blur in the time rage of 1607- 1624 along with secondary view that clears the overall "encounter"  John Smith, governor of Jamestown and captain, documented his experience with Powhatan in 1607 depicting the natives a kind and generous in the True Revelation; document A. This document is the primary recording of the Natives toward John Smith himself. While Smith later changed his perspective in General History(Document B) in 1624 his published work is prone to influence resulting in false events required by Smith. Later seen in Paul Lewis sum up the actual events that transpire. Thus all documents prove that the interaction between Pocahontas and John Smith never happened.
